Non mi pare un articolo equilibrato.
Non tiene conto delle vicende italiane.
Come si può escludere che la scelta delle università sia indizio d'una linea politica alternativa che si sta concretizzando?
Speriamo non contagi il governo e Renzi..
Sarebbe una iattura, proprio adesso che c'è il semestre di presidenza italiana.
Stefano, sono a disposizione per l'interpellanza.
Penso sia molto importante.

From Google to Amazon: EU goes to war against power of US digital giants
In Europe there is a growing fear of becoming a 'digital colony' ruled

is the future of democracy in the digital age, and nothing less, that is
at stake here, and with it, the freedom, emancipation, participation and
self-determination of 500 million people in Europe."
In France, economy minister Arnaud Montebourg believes Europe risks
becoming a "digital colony of the global internet giants", and ministers
have called for Google to contribute to the cost of upgrading the
